This could be used by anyone, it would only cost ingame money, and it would be a rented item. (Like bowling shoes ) The downside of using this rather than a jetpack, is that it has a longer cooldown, due to energy consumption, the operator, if a trial, can't put it on hotkeys- they need to switch to it in inventory, then take it off and replace it with a weapon shortly after using it, and it's not great in combination with energy weapons of any kind. (Not Plasma, Plasma doesn't use energy. )
That's a pretty good idea, except as you said, with no hot keys it can be pretty easy to lame a trial who just used that.

Back on topic, I think that a 10 seconds of immunity would be far much better than a whole minute.
